The three active light neutrinos are used to explain the neutrino oscillations. The inherently bi-large mixing neutrino mass matrix and the Fritzsch type, bi-small mixing charged lepton mass matrix are assumed. By requiring the maximal νμ − ντ mixing for the atmospheric neutrino problem and the masssquared difference approperiate for the almost maximal mixing solution to the solar neutrino prob...

I review two subjects in which lattice simulations are making, or can make in the future, a significant contribution to particle physics phenomenology. The first subject is the evaluation of quantities which enter into the determination of the vertex A of the unitarity triangle from experimental measurements of decay rates and mixing amplitudes. These quantities include the form-factors for sem...

Several quantities relevant to phenomenological studies of B0–B̄0 mixing are computed on the lattice. Our main results are fBd √ B̂Bd = 206(28)(7) MeV, ξ = fBs √

We propose a flexible and model independent parametrization of the neutrino mixing matrix, which takes advantage of the fact that there are up to three small quantities in neutrino mixing phenomenology: (i) the deviation from maximal mixing of solar neutrinos, (ii) the mixing matrix element Ue3 and (iii) the deviation from maximal mixing of atmospheric neutrinos. It is possible to quantify thos...

We describe an atomic multiplet code (HTAC) for the calculation of various atomic radiative processes, including energy levels, oscillator strength, radiative transition rates, mixing coefficients for any rank of mutipole transitions, and other quantities.

We present high-statistics results for neutral B-meson mixing and heavy-light-meson leptonic decays in the quenched approximation from tadpole-improved clover actions at β = 6.0 and β = 6.2. We consider quantities such as BBd(s) , fDd(s) , fBd(s) and the full ∆B = 2 matrix elements as well as the corresponding SU(3)-breaking ratios. These quantities are important for determining the CKM matrix ...

We point out the simple reversibility between the fundamental neutrino mixing parameters in vacuum and their effective counterparts in matter. The former can therefore be expressed in terms of the latter, allowing more straightforward extraction of the genuine lepton mixing quantities from a variety of long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments. In addition to the parametrization-independen...

In this paper, we study the role of degree mixing in the naming game. It is found that consensus can be accelerated on disassortative networks. We provide a qualitative explanation of this phenomenon based on clusters statistics. Compared with assortative mixing, disassortative mixing can promote the merging of different clusters, thus resulting in a shorter convergence time. Other quantities, ...
